This Morning has received audience complaints through Ofcom for a segment involving candle and reed diffuser making which sparked fire hazard concerns.The programme received 62 complaints on February 16 over the controversial topic.The segment aimed to entertain young children whilst their parents or guardians work from home and told viewers "not to despair".Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary passed over to presenter Georgina Burnett as she hosted the demonstration.She began by offering some ideas for candle making, saying that it was "easy" to get into candle making while Dermot joked that he had "cupboards full" of candles at home.Burnett promoted an eco-friendly way of up-cycling rubbish to use for candle holders, such as an old jam jar, a wine glass or a brick for a "rustic" feel.She then went on to begin the demonstration by suggesting that the wax can be heated up in water or in the microwave to 70 or 80 degrees celsius. Burnett then went on to explain that viewers can add dye and scents to their creations if they so please, before demonstrating how to put a candle wick into a container."I can't believe how easy that is," commented a shocked Alison Hammond.Dermot added: "Probably best to do with older kids, isn't it?"Georgina then said: "I think, the older kids when the heat is involved.

Premier League referees are not robots.Underneath the mechanical arm actions, the black costume, and that obvious bias each and every last one of them has against your team, they can actually be a bit of a laugh.Indeed, some are even capable of sending themselves up in hilarious fashion.And none more so was that evident than around 20 years ago when the top-flight's top officials were invited to take part in Soccer AM's infamous Crossbar Challenge. For anyone not familiar with possibly the most popular sketch in the cult show's history, the aim is simple - hit the crossbar from the halfway line.

Google Maps can be a treasure trove of fascinating things you wouldn’t otherwise ever get to see.Sometimes they can be beautiful, sometimes shocking and sometimes very sad.In the case of a find in the Krasnoyarsk Krai region in Russia, the last option on that list applies. Internet users have labelled the camp "the most depressing place ever”, the Independent reports and rightly so as it likely saw hundreds of thousands of people sent there to live, work and possibly die in some of the grimmest conditions possible.

Russian President Vladimir Putin decide to launch a nuclear attack on London, towns, cities and villages would be flattened.In the horror photos, millions of houses would be destroyed and hundreds of miles of wasteland would emerge with Scotland perhaps becoming one of the safest places to live in the UK in the terrifying scenario.A map released by Nuclear Secrecy shows that should Russia decide to go full force in a potential World War 3 and release the largest ever bomb designed by the USSR – the Tsar Bomba – on the nation's capital then the highlands might just be the safest place to turn to.According to the map, fatalities could top around six million, with the same amount suffering from devastating injuries further afield, writes The Express.The initial fireball radius, if the centre of London was the focal point, would reach around 6.1 kilometres, while moderate blast damage will stretch out further to 32.6km.A thermal radiation radius, where anyone in its wake would suffer from 3rd degree burns, hits around 73.7km, while a further light blast damage radius hits around 91.8km.This will see glass windows can breaking, causing many injuries in a surrounding population who comes to a window after seeing the flash of a nuclear explosion.That would hit as far as parts of Oxford, Cambridge, and Peterborough.The fallout from the potential attack would hit as far as Liverpool, Manchester and Leeds, as nuclear effects will travel in the wind – as it did when the Chernobyl nuclear plant exploded.This could leave Scotland, and Ireland and Northern Ireland, as the safest places to go.It comes as the UK's health secretary confirmed yesterday, (February 22), that the British government considers Russia to have already begun its

RuPaul's Drag Race: UK Versus The World, which aired on BBC Three on February 22, will go down in herstory – but whether that's for the right or wrong reason is up to you.The entire world has been left gobsmacked that front-runner Pangina Heals, representing Thailand, was eliminated after Blu Hydrangea, of Drag Race UK fame, won the lip-sync against Baga Chipz.The uproar has been so loud on Twitter than current and former stars of the show have been forced to get involved to tell people to calm down and get a grip – and rightly so.This is supposed to be a light-hearted television show, full of incredible costumes, campy humour and just the right amount of backstabbing (or maybe not, as we saw this week). It's really not that deep.Fresh from the shock of Pangina Heals eliminating the last-remaining Canadian queen Jimbo, the episode opens with the Thai queen admitting she's "at peace" with her decision.

She further claims that the products she creates are a form of “artistic expression” that should be protected under the First Amendment, and therefore, she should be exempt from having to abide by Colorado’s Anti-Discrimination Act.Smith’s lawsuit was dismissed in May 2019, on the grounds that she had filed suit before the state had taken any action against her — or before she had even been asked to create a website for a same-sex couple — and thus, had no grounds to sue.
